Hi Dave,

How about a better grade of employee. Perhaps only hire those that
don't need to steal to support their drug habit.

This is my business workbench/equipment in my home. Some homes have been
burglarized recently: smash a door glass, open the door, march the proceeds
out to the driveway (where a van has been waiting with rear doors right up
against the house) and load up everything.

Wouldn't they also take the *bench*? (as has happened here, recently,
with homes being "cleaned out").

Perhaps a wiser approach might be to affix a sticker to each piece
of kit offering a reward for its return! Then, if it ends up in a
pawn shop, etc. SOMEONE has an incentive to contact you.


Hillarious. Why not just put stickers on stuff that says "don't steal,
it's wrong"?


"Do not remove, under penalty of law" on the stickers?


Ha.

I recall the fire extinguishers on the school busses I rode all had big
orange bumper sticker sized stickers on them that said "STOLEN FROM
ROBINSON BUS" or whatever the company was called. I always found those
funny quite entertaining.
